I went to my prom. And I remember how much fun it was picking out my dress. I could never have spent the amount that some of these dresses are selling for n a one time dress, but I did have beautiful one!

A very fun post, Elizabeth! I missed both my high school and college graduations, but when my husband and I were around thirty, we were a part of the folk dance crowd, mostly geeks and nerds and awkward but creative teenagers who had grown up and gravitated toward each other as adults. A friend hosted a prom at the fictional Margaret Hamilton High School with an Over the Rainbow theme for those of us who were too shy to go our proms the first time around. We got to wear prom gowns and have our photographs taken under a tissue paper rainbow, and the whole hall was decorated with an Emerald City theme (Emerald City is the nickname of our city, Seattle). So it’s nice to know that it’s never too late to go to prom!

I’m past the age of prom, but I’ve been seeing a lot of these posts lately! I think the biggest thing to remember is that you don’t have to spend a ton of money on a dress you’re only going to wear once 🙂

I love that dress in the top picture upper right hand corner. I know it is a prom dress but I have a friend that is getting married and she just saw it and is excited to check it out. They have beautiful dresses, maybe we can get the entire wedding party outfitted here.

I never did go to prom. I don’t think my mom would have been able to afford a dress for me as she was single with 4 kids to raise. I did love going to the mall and trying on all the beautiful gowns around prom season though.

My daughter will be going to prom in 2 years, and I am really excited to do the dress shopping with her!

I attended both my Jr and Sr Proms. There were no strategies involved, we went to the store and found a dress I liked the fit the budget. I was all of 14 so it was nothing serious, and I hated my classmates anyway because they bullied me.

My best prom shopping tip: don’t be so picky that you end up running out at the last minute to get ANYTHING because you were stuck on a specific dress. Of course, with the internet, finding the right dress is so much easier than it was when I was in high school!

These tips are great! I remember my prom dress vividly. Mainly because my husband bought for me for Christmas. At the tone we were dating. I remember thinking it was the most beautiful dress I’ve ever seen. A prom dress should make a young lady feel special like mind made me.

Those are a some beautiful dresses! I would always ask my dad to take me prom dress shopping over my mom, because my mom was all about the best deal. My dad would get tired and finally cave and let me get whatever I wanted LOL
